GENERAL REMARKS.
gz
WHE PROPRIETOR, having devoted many years to horticulture in its
| h several departments, feels confident in his ability to select from the
——— vast and confusing list of seeds such species and varieties only as are
really worthy of cultivation, to the exclusion of all the various sorts that are
not adapted to our climate, but which are too frequently recommended and
sold, to the serious loss and disappointment of planters.
As the profession has always been pursued with a view to a permanent
business, great care is taken to preserve an unsullied reputation, by having
supplies of all the leading kinds of seeds raised annually by careful growers,
from roots or seeds selected by the proprietor. Such seeds as are not suc-
cessfully grown in our climate are imported from the most reliable seedsmen
in Europe. The purity and germinating qualities of all important seeds are
tested each year, under his personal supervision.
The observance of such a system may be considered as a guarantee
that no seeds will be offered except such as are known to possess the most es-
sential good qualities for general purposes.
To aid the amateur and others in making selections, some of the leading
and most desirable kinds are marked with an asterisk, thus (h):
The proprietor can here only enumerate the leading articles in his collec-
tion; and from a conviction that the seedsman’s fair reputation is often un-
justly defamed through failure of seeds, he would with brevity state some of
the causes: |
first—That some cultivators, through ignorance or forgetfulness of the
fact that the products of a garden are natives of various soils and climates,
and require peculiar management, sow their seeds at an improper season.
To aid such the most tender species, which should not be placed in the open
ground until settled warm weather, are marked thus (+). The half-hardy,
which are subject to risk if sown when frosts prevail, are marked thus (f).
The early and most hardy species and varieties should not be planted until
the ground can be brought into good condition, as some species of plants that
in an advanced state of growth will stand a hard winter are often cut off by
a very slight frost while young, especially if exposed to the heat of the sun
after a frosty night. To guard against disappointment, reserve some of the
seed for a later sowing.
Second—That some species of seeds, such as Beans, Beet, Cabbage, Lettuce,
Radish, Salsify, Turnip, etc., being from their nature apt to vegetate quickly,
are often liable to be devoured by insects within forty-eight hours after they
are sown, and before a plant is seen above ground, unless a suitable remedy
is applied in time to destroy them.
2 BRIDGEMAN’S SEED CATALOGUE.
Third—That some species, such as Carrot, Celery, Leek, Onion, Parsley,
Parsnip, Spinach, etc., being naturally of tardy growth—taking (in unfavorable
seasons) from two to four weeks to vegetate—are apt to perish through incrus-
tation of the soil, or other circumstances which cannot always be controlled.
Fourth—That failures often occur through seed being deposited too deep
in the ground, or left too near the surface; sometimes, for want of sufficient
seed in a given spot, solitary plants perish, lacking strength to open the
pores of the earth; and very often injudicious management in manuring and
preparing the soil will cause failures.
To insure a fair chance, plant your seed moderately thick, and thin out
the surplus plants while young.
In planting seeds in drills (which is the most desirable plan), the size of
the seed and strength of its germ should be considered; large seeds, pro-
ducing vigorous roots, require deeper planting than diminutive seeds pro-
ducing delicate roots and slender stalks; the smallest seeds should not be
covered more than a quarter of an inch.
For instructions on these and other subjects of gardening, the reader is
referred to BRIDGEMAN’S BOOK ON GARDENING, and other works by celebrated
authors, of which a list will be found in this catalogue. |
Notwithstanding the great care used to supply every article true to name
and of good quality, nothing is warranted. .
Boxes, barrels and bags used in packing will be charged at cost prices.
It is requested that explicit directions for marking and forwarding pack-
ages accompany each order. All goods will be legibly marked as directed,
and delivered to vessels in port, and railroad and express offices in the city of
New York, free of expense. After shipment, they will be at the risk of the
purchaser.

yellow ground. As the comb is formed not so
dense as the other varieties of Cockscomb, the

The Planet jr. Single-Wheel Hoe, Cultivator, Rake and Plow.
The tool combines lightness, great
strength, variety and adjustability of tcols.
It has all the tools shown in the cut. It is
pronounced by practical men without an
equal in design and finish, ease of operation,
variety of adjustment and perfection of
work. The form of the hoe insures a for-
ward slanting cut next to the plant, and
consequent close work without danger, and
at the same time thorough cultivation of
the soil. Therakesand cultivator teeth, in
combination with the hoesand plow, enable
the operator to perform almost every va- F F
riety of work, either in field or garden. A leaf-guard (detachable) is very useful in late hoeing. All rows from
6 to 18 inches apart can be perfectly hoed at one passage. The frame allows every desirable adjustment, is quickly
raised and lowered to regulate depth, and the wheel can be attached centrally or at one side of the machine, giving
the operator the advantage of hoeing both sides of the row at one passage when desired. Price, $4.50.
‘“‘ Fire-Fly’?’ Wheel Garden Plow.
This tool is intended for those who have but small
gardens and a moderate amount of time to spend in
them. It enables them to raise vegetables for their
family or for market with a minimum expenditure of
labor and time, the latter being often the most impor-
tant item to many who would be glad to grow their own
vegetables if they could doit in their spare moments.
The moldboard is tempered and polished steel. The

The ‘‘Fire-Fiy’’ Single-Wheel Hoe, Cultivator and Plow Combined.
This convenient tool has rapidly convinced gardeners of its high merits. It combines lightness and strength
with great adjustability, while its highly pol-
ished and tempered tools make gardening
comparatively a pleasure. The tools are all
made after the most perfect models, and are:
Ist,a fairy of admirable hoes, which can be
set to work to and from the row, and to any
desired depth; next, aset of three reversible
cultivator teeth, to be used together or singly
or in conjunction with the hoes; 3rd, a large,

The Planet Jr. Grass-Edger.
A cheap, handy and effective Grass Edger is a treasure, and here it is: one with which you can in an hour
e edge beautifully the walks and the flower and shrub beds of an
ordinary half-acrelawn. Think of it; why in the usual way it
would take aday. This perfect little tool does either straight
or curved work most accurately, edging at the desired angle
and at the speed of amile an hour. It will give more genuine
pleasure and satisfaction for a moderate cost and the little
time expended in its use than the lawn mower. It should be
the constant companion of the mower, and is regarded as inval-
uable in giving the last touch of neatness to the lawn when the
mower has done its best. Strawberry growers will find it a
rapid and perfect tool for cutting off surplus runners. For
this work the hoe may be removed. By removing the wheel,

FLOWER SEEDS.

GENERAL DIRECTIONS FOR THE CULTIVATION OF ANNUAL, BIENNIAL,
AND PERENNIAL FLOWERS.
Piants are known and described generally as Annuals, Biennials and Perennials.
Annuals are those plants that flower and mature their seed within a year after they are
sown, andthen perish. This definition isin no waychanged by the fact that many annuals may
be managed as biennials, or, in other words, be sown in autumn for flowering early the following
season.
Tender Annuals are those that require heat, and will not germinate in the open ground
until settled warm weather.
Half-Hardy Annuals are those which will beara slight frost, and may be sown in the open
ground a little earlier than tender annuals.
Hardy Annuals are usually those which require no artificial heat during any period of their
growth—every stage of their existence, from the time of sowing the seed to maturity, is passed
in the open ground.
Biennials are those plants that flower the second, and sometimes the third year after the
seed is sown, and then perish.
Perennials are those plants that live and perpetuate their species throughout many years
successively.
The last two classes are again divided in respect to their endurance of low temperature, as
- TENDER, HALF-HARDY or HARDY.
Tender Biennials and Perennials are greenhouse or dwelling-house plants requiring artifi-
cial heat to protect them from frost.
Half-Hardy Biennials and Perennials are those that require a slight covering of straw or
litter during cold weather.
Hardy Biennials and Perennials are those that w vill stand the coldest winter weather without
protection.
Soils Most Suitable.—The soil best adapted to a majority of plants is a light, friable loam,
containing a moderate quantity of vegetable matter, and enough sand to render it porous; but as
it seldom happens that the amateur has a choice of soil, it is fortunate that most of them will suc-
ceed in any but such as is of an extremely dry or gravelly nature, or of a stiff, heavypretentive
quality.
Manures. The use of strong, crude manures should be carefully avoided. In ordinary
good soil, an annual dressing of decomposed stable manure, dug in tothe depth of about ten
inches, and thoroughly incorporated with the soil, will be all that is needed.
Time of Sowing. With regardto the proper time of sowing flower seeds, much neces-
sarily dependson the character of the season. As a general rule (near New York City) hardy
kinds may be sown inthe open ground about the middle of April, hal/-hardy during the first
week of May, and tender after the middle of May.
The best method to obtain early fiowers is to sow seed of the most desirable tender and half
hardy species in potsearly in March. If kept in a warm greenhouse or window, or plunged into
a moderate hot-bed, they will be ready to transplant tothe open ground early i inMay. The sea-
son of blooming will be made fully three weeks earlier thereby.
Mode of Sowing. Seeds may be sown in patches among the border plants in rows or
groups where they are to remain, or in a nursery bed, and afterwards transplanted. Asa gen-
eral rule, the surface soil should be rather dry than otherwise at the time of sowing ; the opera-
tion must not be undertaken when the ground is very wet, especially at anearly period of spring.
32 BRIDGEMAN’S SEED CATALOGUE.
The Depth at whichseeds should be sown will vary with their size. Large seeds, suchas
Lupins, Marvel of Peru, or Sweet Peas, should be sown about half an inch deep; medium size
seeds, such as Balsams, Convolvulus or Thunbergia, about a quarter of an inch deep; while such
as are very small require to be sown on the actual surface, a slight pressure being then sufficient
toimbed them to a proper depth. If sown too deep, they are longer in germinating, and the
smaller ones are liable to decay through want of strength toopen the poresoftheearth. Inthe
absence of rain, water the seeds occasionally from a watering-pot with a very fine rose.
Transplanting. Assoon as the seedlings are an inch high, they may be transplanted to
different partsofthe garden. Removethe plants carefully with a small garden trowel, retaining
as much of the soil to the roots as possible. Place the large growing kinds in the rear, and the
smallin front ; aboveall things, avoid crowding them. Transplanting should, if possible, be per-
formed in cloudy weather, or towards evening ; and, unless the soil is wet, the seedlings should
be slightly watered, to settle the soil about the roots, shading them for a day or two afterwards,
if necessary.
The Risk and Trouble of transplanting may be avoided by adopting the following method
of sowing the seed: Take a package of say twenty varieties, and number the bags from one to
twenty ; then sow a small circle from each bag in the order in which they are numbered, and in-
sert a short stick in the center of eachcircle as a mark. By this method thetwenty varieties are
distributed along the border in succession ; and as each bag will besufficient for about three cir-
cles, or three assortments of twenty varieties each, they may be sown in three different aspects of
the garden, which will not only give the various flowers the best possible chance with regard to
exposure, but show the varieties tothe best possible advantage. By preserving the bags, the mere
novice, by referring to the name and number on each, will become acquainted with the different
varieties from the order in which they stand inthe garden. This system may be practiced to.
advantage either on a large or small scale.
Neatness is indispensable ina flower garden, and neither the variety nor beauty of the plants.
will compensate for its absence. As theplantsadvancein growth, frequent weeding and hoeing
will be necessary, as well for the sake of neatness as to stimulate their growth. Tie the tall grow-
ing kinds to neat rods or sticks, and train the vines or climbers on trellises, strings, or poles.

FLOWER SEEDS.
The great interest manifested in the cultivation of flowers, and the increasing demand
for new varieties, have induced us to give particular attention to this department. In
addition to the many kinds grown here, we import annually from England, France and
Germany, all the standard kinds and novelties as they appear there; and no expense is
spared to make the collection as select and varied as any to be found in this country.
